“After working with Ruth, I completely rethought my approach to presenting. Her recommendations and tips were
invaluable and I noticed immediate success in bet ter conveying messaging. At taining presenting expertise is a
journey and Ruth has been a tremendous asset to me in this regard.”
ERICK ASMUSSEN
CFO, Graf tech International
“I always know, in the most delicate of political situations, and with talent that were often skit tish and ill-prepared,
that I could trust you to let their own voices come through, without fear of faux pas, without over-worry and overmanagement. That was always the neat hat-trick, and you’ve always been the best at it.”
